Meditation and Buddhism in Tallahassee
Meditation classes in Tallahassee teach basic meditation and the practice of Kadampa Buddhism. The purpose of these classes is to help people to gain personal experience of inner peace, to overcome their daily problems, and to find real happiness in their hearts.
Our Tallahassee classes consist of guided meditations, a talk and discussion. The classes are suitable for everyone from beginners to experienced meditators. Each class is self contained, though you are welcome to attend the whole course. They provide an ideal introduction to meditation and Buddhism, teaching effective and practical methods for overcoming problems and increasing happiness in daily life.
Current Topic: Learn to Meditate
The purpose of meditation is to create calm and peaceful experiences of mind. With a peaceful mind, we are free from anxiety and mental discomfort, enjoying instead a deep experience of relaxation with increased powers of concentration. As our mind becomes more balanced, our relationships become more stable and fulfilling, our energy increases, and our overall health improves. During this series of classes, based on the timeless wisdom of Buddha’s teachings, you will be taught and guided through the process of developing a daily meditation practice.
